A letter from Sheboygan Wisconsin dated July 24 presents a neighborly loan tale. A farmer borrowed 50 bushels of seed wheat as repayment for a $50 loan. With prices and mortgages halving since ten years ago, the author questions whether accepting repayment in seed or cash is fair, noting the seed’s value and the mortgage’s changing power. The piece ends asking if the lender is harmed by the altered value.
